This is the third and last installment of Dancin'>Franklin's. Cape Cod and Buffalo are both better, but this one is pretty cool too.

Drop everything and go to tapers section now and listen!. The 01 is an instant classic and this Cryptical has that classic 1970 build-up.

Slow long version with nice solo at end. I think this one is so good due to the NFA before it and the smoking GDTRFB after.

It sounds as if they are going into Fire at end, but it just doesn't get there. Listen. Agree. Best show of the tour and top 5 for the year!

Best O1 of all time.

Soulful came to my mind before I even looked to post.
Scarlet Begonias -> Fire On The Mountain

Horton Field House - Illinois State University

This is a unique version and very good. I still like Tuscaloosa and Iowa better. 10/14/1994 at 33 mins was best recent one. After more listens, probably not in my top 10. Bob's slide ruins the Fire.

2013 bonus disc. Aren't they all epic??? This version is hot, tho.
